Hi
I am wanting to clear crash data from the airbag module myself instead of paying someone else to do it.
i have read about upa and xprog m but these are all fairly expensive, what other alternatives do i have?
i dont mind paying for the right gear as long as it wont be outdated the moment i buy it, some of the software i have looked at dont seem to do newer cars.
can anyone point me in the right direction please?

thanks in advance.

If UPA is too expensive for you, then give it a rest...
You need a much more than UPA...

I dont mind paying for the right equiptment, i was just wanting to know what is the best but most reasonable priced?
the upa to usb programmer looks very complicated and i am unsure it will do what i need. i am only after some advice really on what other people use and their experiences so i can buy the right stuff first time.

The first step is the UPA_USB programmer.
Good tool for newbies and experts.
Later, you need more tools...
But the first five years will enough :)
Cheap. Excellent.
